New Delhi , 14 May 2019

India head coach Ravi Shastri believes the team has got all bases covered going into the World Cup slated to be held in England and Wales from May 30.In an interview with  Cricketnext, Shastri said India have a flexible team and have players who can play at any position at any given point of time. "I think we have got all bases covered, really. Last  thing you want is passengers on the tour. You want to have in those 15 players -- a player who can play anytime, at any given time," Shastri said in an interview with Cricketnext.He also said that they have plenty of options for the much-debated number four slot. Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had named Vijay Shankar as the number four  batsman ahead of Ambati Rayadu because of his "three-dimensional" cricket. However, Shankar has been in the scanner as he was not able to deliver as per expectations in the  just concluded edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). He scored 244 runs in the 15 matches playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)."I don't think so because for me we are a  flexible team. Its horses for courses, we have got enough ammunition there, enough players who can bat at 4. So, I am not really worried about that," said Shastri.During the  course of the interview, the India head coach also said that the rapport and respect between M.S. Dhoni and Virat Kohli is tremendous and both individuals are committed towards  a common team goal."I was never ever in doubt about the two of them having the kind of respect they have for each other, wanting to do a good job for each other because in the  first phase of my job MS was the captain, the next half Virat. And I can see the commitment both have for each other -- its tremendous," said Shastri.He also pointed out that  everyone in the team is aware of the achievements of Dhoni and they learn a lot from the former India skipper. "Everyone knows and they know what he (Dhoni) has achieved in  the game, the stature that he has and then to see the poise and to see the humility. You know his sheer presence -- the composure he brings when he is out there batting or  even during (wicket) keeping is something you have just got to watch and learn and try and emulate it," he said. The 56-year-old also maintained that the existence of different  personalities in the dressing room allows players to express them freely. "We don't want all personalities to be the same in the team and then you know all hell will break loose,  but you need that. That kind of a passion from Virat, the calmness from MS and each player is different. Rohit can be different from Shikhar. Kuldeep could be different from  someone like Hardik. You would want that," he said.India will begin its World Cup campaign against South Africa on June 5. Squad: Virat Kohli (C), Rohit Sharma (VC) Shikhar  Dhawan, KL Rahul, Vijay Shankar, MS Dhoni (wicket keeper), Kedar Jadhav, Dinesh Karthik, Y. Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya,  Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami.
